What is piezoelectric crystal?
Piezoelectricity is the property of a material to generate movement from an electric current, and vice versa. A common piezoelectric material is quartz.
Could you ignite gunpowder with a piezoelectric crystal?
Yes.
When was the piezoelectric microphone invented?
1964 by David thomas by mistake
Why is quartz used in piezoelectric transducer?
Quartz is used in piezoelectric transducers because of potential for high voltage input and acoustic power. Quartz is a piezoelectric crystal and when it is mechanically strained or deformed by stress, electric charges appear on some surfaces. When the strain is reversed, the polarity of the charges reverse. This allows vibration of quartz crystals to be transformed into electric pulses.
What are the physical properties of piezoelectric crystals?
Piccolo hates science so he doesnt care to answer this useless question
What are the types of biosensors?
There are different types of biosensors based on different principles. However, generally they are categorized as: Optical biosensors Potentiometric biosensors Resonant Biosensors Thermal-detection Biosensors Ion-Sensitive Biosensors Electrochemical Biosensors Conductimetric Amperometric Potentiometric Calorimetric biosensors
How are piezoelectric materials that contain silicon used in science and industry?
Piezoelectric materials have been integrated with silicon microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) in both microsensor and microactuator applications. Some recent and emerging applications of piezoelectric MEMS are acoustic emission microsensors, vibration monitors, molecular recognition biosensors, precision positioners, micropumps, and linear stepper motors. - See more at: http://www.chacha.com/question/how-are-piezoelectric-materials-that-contain-silicon-used-in-science-and-industry#sthash.EpLIkFTw.dpuf
When is it appropriate to use biosensors?
It is appropriate to use biosensors for pollution control or when one moves their eye. The biosensors control the movement in which the eye makes from one's nerves.
What has the author F Scheller written?
F. Scheller has written: 'Biosensoren' 'Biosensors' -- subject(s): Biosensors
What has the author M Todd Jarvis written?
M. Todd Jarvis has written: 'Biosensors' -- subject(s): Biosensors, Technology assessment
How do you pronounce piezoelectric crystal?
Like this: (piezoelectric-crystal)
What happens when piezoelectric crystals are kept in water?
Many piezoelectric crystals can be used in water with no issues.
Can biosensors detect non-pathogens?
Biosensors can be made to detect almost anything. You could design a biosensor to detect a non-pathogenic bacteria but there would be few people who would want to buy it.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of piezoelectric sensors?
Advantages:- They generate a voltage proportional to the velocity the crystal is deformed so require no local power source. Disadvantages;- They are high impedence and can pick up stray voltages in the connecting wires. The crystal is also prone to cracking if overstressed
